The epitome of modern technology can pretty be summed up by the phrase, “weird, yet useful” and frankly, we’re suckers for it every time. So as we approach the holiday season you may want to keep some of these gadgets in mind for tech-loving friends or family members, the ultimate white elephant gift, or ya know, a little something for yourself. Let’s get started.

Sleep and Wake Up Light Therapy Lamp
We could all use more sleep, or at least better sleep, and with this little gadget, it’s totally possible.

Interactive Cat Toy
Cats love some entertainment and we love the entertainment provided by cats that are entertained! If you have a feline friend that could use a little something to do, may we suggest an interactive cat toy?

LifeStraw
This straw acts as a personal water filtration system, making it an awesome gift for those that are outdoorsy, or just a great addition to anyone’s emergency bag. (buy it here)
Rechargeable Lighter
Okay, we get it, lighters are lighters. But think about it like this: a rechargeable lighter means you don’t have to buy cheap plastic ones, and since this one has a bendable neck, you don’t have to bend your hand all weird or tilt your candle to light it. Sure, a seemingly simple task made even easier, but work smart, not hard, right? (buy it here)
